Hey everyone! Anyone who did some gen-ed courses at keiser tell me the price range? I'm currently at bc and I just have a&p1&2 with labs and micro with lab. I'm trying to figure out if I take those courses at keiser financial aid would be able to cover it ( I like the one class a month). And also I would love to hear about you're experience with applying for their nursing program and also taking the TEAS.
Thanks in advance!

When I wanted to try Keiser each semester was $7000. Ton on money for an associates degree. Couldn't say about individual classes.

@adp My entire Keiser degree was out of pocket because I already have a bachelor's degree. If you do not, the price actually goes down significantly. They offer a lot of grants and some scholarships. Military discounts too.Tuition went up a bit before I graduated. I believe it is a little more than 7k per term. But for me it was worth it.

I was accepted while still in a pre req course. Any other campus I would have had to wait until it was completely over to even apply. Which would have given me a Spring start instead of Fall. Keiser core is 16 months as opposed to 24. I saved 1 year. I am going to start working within the next few weeks In my opinion, it was totally worth it ( Also,I definitely enjoyed the small class sizes and the relationship we each were able to have with all of our instructors) I would have lost more money not working for a year than paying Keiser for a year. 40k = a year of working, 14k= a year of keiser

This is completely my opinion and what was best for me. I hope you find what is best for you! Good luck!

Hi taeway94 I attended PBSC for majority of my general studies and took my last semester of general studies at Keiser U and I start Nursing Core in May YAY!
I would recommend taking as much of your prereqs at a state college as possible, due to the cost. That one general studies semester cost me about $7,000. Also, I have herd that A&P is not thorough enough at Keiser which will become a real set back when your in core. I took micro at Keiser and it was fine. My advice to you is to just check to see what prereqs Keiser requires because I didn't originally plan to transfer there so I took a couple of classes at the state college which I didn't need at Keiser.
As for the TEAS, get the ATI manual, take the practice tests and that should give you a feel for what you need to focus on. Just study hard. I struggled with the English portion so I had to take it more then once. Everyone is different, we all have are own strengths and weaknesses and we all have different study strategies.
Good Luck!
